Additional comment

Whenever you obtain a new tool that comes with an owner's manual, it is always a good idea to read the manual and learn the features of the tool. Many calculator manuals have example problems and/or ones you can work yourself to test your understanding of the various functions. As the attachments show, there are various on-line calculators that can work problems like this, too.
